It was aggressively bad. I'm not going to lie to myself, I will watch Season 11 even if Chris Carter writes every episode, but I really wish they wouldn't allow him anywhere near the show anymore. He's gone full George Lucas.

Well, now I see why everyone was/is pissed. That was really, really not good. And that's coming from someone who wasn't particularly invested in it. I can't imagine how heartbreaking it must have been for the superfans.
